The CONSERVATION Created BY q Newly
Married Couple.
Omaha Herald: Everybody could see
they were just married and bound for
somewhere, probably Oskaloosa, to spend
their honeymoon, and as they sat together
in tho waiting room Of the depot, he
munching at a piece of gingerbread and she
licking a huge chunk of 'lasses taffy. they
indeed formed a picture which would make
scantily clad Cupid flap his wings with de-
light and rejoice over his success as a match
maker.
It was not long before everybody in the
waiting room became aware that a newly
married couple were in their midst, ana
the two soon became the cynosure OF all
ewes, from the small boy to the yellow dog
with q curl in his tail. =.
IKE" said the bride Is she licked OF
some of the taffy which had got between
her fingers, ''are you sure you won't be
sorry that you married me? Are you sure, ="
and she nestled down closer to him and
laid her fair red head confidingly on his
coat collar, that you wouldn't rather have
married Lizzie Perkins? You know, Ike,
her pap has lots OF money, and you'd
have given her that spotted COW which you
called Twistum, because it's tail always
twisted around in your face when you
MIXED it, and your S'manthy hasn't got a
thing. Ike. but her love for you"
"S'manthy, yeou shouldn't talk that way
few vour own key replied her newly
made better.half, as he a his paw through
his hair which stood on end at an angle OF
fortv-eight degrees, and looked crosswise
at a. large yellow freckle which adorned bis
"S,manthv's" nose. "Yeou shouldn't.
really. because yeou know that l didn't
care q durn fer Lie Perkins or her pas
cow, and yeou know, S'manthy' that al
Ina said that Twistum couldn't give any
milk tew amount tew anything. 80 now;
don't yeou say 10 more aoouS Lize' anu
" ~ dom into N'braska and start a farm;
that's what we'll do. I'd ruther be there
anyway. S'manthy, as that place ain,s
nrohibition like Iowa, and we can sell
sur rye and wheat down there Tor GOOD
prices" 18th
The two had become 80 e~ngrossed with
oach other that they forgot there were not
seventy.five people looking at chem: so that
when S'manthy heard her husband and
lovers fond avowal for herself she became
so excited that she nearly crawled over tne
iron arms of the seat in her anxiety 10 get
closer to Ike. He was but human; SO MS
arm stole about her waist and his yellow
hair got closer to the freckle. =,
Said he: "Naow. yeou Jest Keep s1ll'
s,manthy, because l am going to KISS yeou'
right here. Yes, I am, tew." ~
All S'manthy said was somethlng nke:
"Koochee, koochee." Then there was r.
abort silence followed by a "ker-ker-cnug'
ord the two had kissed.
This was too much for the audience VINO
had been waiting and watching in deep sns-
nanss. and q number of them who couldn't
snnreciate anything half so sweet or ten
dar hurst into q loud laugh. S'manthy
hi",shad and looked sheepish rs she settled
berself over a seat, while keys hair Tell
aat over his head and he looked abont as
nnconcerned as q preacher in whose pocket
q mack of cards and a h~alteaten
;s fonnd. An old baldheaded bacheior VINO
sot in the corner sighed deeply and
1""ked over at them in a reproach-
t , sort Of q way, while a number
~ vomng and giddy girls giggled and blushed.
T o. so smsli how and the yellowd dog were also
Elected, The boy began sucking MS lore
fnoer. and cried ma-a'a-a. whlle tne oos
liked no to where the pair were sltslng
nd Jagged his curly tail a. il to say: an
aha-oi" An this made the loving twain
the more uncomfortable, and it was a
sonrv moment for them when the tram,
napp onened the door and yelled: a
, nan Gp for St. Paul and Osk'Iucy."
